Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scalze <br />Jim LaValle <br />Steve Morelan <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R. Hanson <br />At your request, I contacted Ellen Skog, Transit Planner at the <br />Metropolitan Council regarding the change in bus service planned <br />for Little Canada effective April 8, 1995. Skog informed me that <br />the current Express Route 35G will be eliminated as of that date. <br />35G has three trips each day during the A.M. peak and three trips <br />each day during the P.M. peak. <br />Skog further informed me that the 35G route will be replaced via <br />an extension of Route 11, which the Metropolitan Council views as <br />basically an even - exchange. Route 11 will have three A.M. peak <br />trips each day as well as three P.M. peak trips. The differences <br />are that Route 11 will not run down LaBore Road between Edgerton <br />and County Road D. Residents along this stretch of LaBore Road <br />would have to catch Route 11 either at the corner of LaBore and <br />County Road D or at the corner of LaBore and Edgerton. Also, <br />Route 11 is not an express route. Therefore, it will take a <br />little longer for the rider to get to wherever he or she is <br />going. Fares on Route 11 will be 50 cents less each way. <br />I have attached a map showing the current express Route 35G, a <br />map comparing Route 35G with the extention of route 11, as well <br />as a recent article which appeared in the Little Canada Press. <br />Any concerns regarding this change in service can be directed to: <br />Ellen Skog <br />Metropolitan Council Transit Operations <br />560 Sixth Avenue North <br />Minneapolis, MN 55411 <br />349 -7796 <br />cc: Joel Hanson <br />Council Members <br />-13- <br />
